I'm pretty sure I misplayed the flop since I made myself commited. How would you play this one?

Again, I'm not shoving this preflop. You get called by some small pocket pair, don't hit an Ace or a Jack and your tournament's over. You can just as easily check here and play according to the flop. You're not so short stacked that this is your one chance. You still have over 10BB, after all.

And I wouldn't shove the flop either. You already raised and villain called. Why is he necessarily folding to an all-in on this particular flop? What are you representing with a push on this flop? It's not as if there is an Ace or King or other scare card to frighten villain with. I'm just check/folding or -possibly - c-bet then fold if villain pushes.

Hi all,

Shove preflop. As played I'd just check/fold the flop. It's too coordinated and our hand is too weak (continuation bet is way too expensive in this spot).
